3/5

Why bother ordering from Amazon, newegg, frys, ebay, when you could go directly to your local shop and get the same item for not much more $?
I mean why bother with Amazon + 3rd party merchant + UPS?
I just went thru a real hassle with Amazon.com
about a DVD burner. I was charged, it was shipped by UPS, but I wasnt home when UPS arrived, so for some strange reason
it was immediately shipped back to the seller.
After asking them to re-ship the drive, they instead refunded my $, but not the s/h fee. An email sent to me by Amazon.com
did state s/h fee will be refunded, however, they offered me store credit or something instead.
Had I just went to my local computer store, I would've had a DVD burner 2 weeks ago.
Utter BS and a waste of time!
